update: we’re still stoked! magoosh won the happiest company in education for 2017 as well!<\/em> <\/p>\n


\n

if you\u2019ve read any of our student happiness reports<\/a> you know that our students are — as kevin likes to say — really<\/em> stoked. in other words, they\u2019re just really dang happy with magoosh and we love that! in fact, sometimes we get so carried away talking about the stoke (happiness) levels of our students that we forget to talk about the stoke in our own office.<\/p>\n

but it\u2019s no secret anymore. the word is out! magoosh is the happiest company in education! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

it even says so on this awesome trophy:<\/p>\n

tinypulse<\/a> is an app that companies all over the world use to collect employee feedback and measure overall happiness in their offices. the folks at tinypulse\u00a0analyzed the feedback from more than 500 companies and — woohoo! — we were the happiest!<\/p>\n

when they told us we won we were surprised \u2026 but not that surprised. we know we\u2019ve got an office full of excited and jovial individuals! don\u2019t take my word for it, though. see for yourself what makes members of our team so happy about working at magoosh.<\/p>\n

what makes magoosh such a happy place to work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

the energy<\/b><\/p>\n

“everybody is so jazzed up about what he or she is doing and each of us thrive off this energy. got a question, got a problem? there’s always a magoosher (or ten!) ready to jump in and help.”<\/em><\/p>\n

awesome people<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201ci love my colleagues! whether we’re out at a wine tasting as a team activity or i’m just grabbing a beer with someone after work, it’s great working with awesome people. i also love our focus on learning and that it’s okay to make mistakes as long as we’re moving forward! :)\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

our ceo<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201ci know that many times, bhavin has lead me to discover for myself something that makes me a happier and more productive employee: he models, suggests, opens possibilities, and i walk away a better person.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

hyper-intensive bananagrams<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cthis is the first job i’ve had where i woke up excited to go to work! i didn’t even think that was a real thing. hyper-intense bananagrams games are the best work breaks ever.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"peter-poer-210x250\"<\/a><\/p>\n

work ownership<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cmy favorite thing about working at magoosh is the degree to which we have ownership over our work. unlike other places i’ve worked, we make decisions fast and tend to own projects from end to end. it’s really liberating to have that control!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"lucas-fink-210x250\"<\/a><\/p>\n

helpful team members<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201ci know what i’m responsible for, and i know i’m trusted to take care of it. exactly how, when, and why i work isn’t nitpicked or imposed on me; it’s the passion and the results that matter, and i know i can provide those. but at the same time, i know i’m not alone, and that i can reach out to literally anybody at magoosh for help if i need it.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"ronke-aderonmu-210x250\"<\/a><\/p>\n

new challenges every day<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201ci love working at magoosh because there’s always something to look forward too. nothing gets stale and there’s always a new challenge, a new chance to learn, or a new test to tackle!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

— ronke aderonmu,\u00a0outreach manager<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"sharat-210x250\"<\/a><\/p>\n

meaningful work<\/b><\/p>\n

“i really like what i’m working on, i think it’s meaningful, and i like the people that i’m working with. coming from a place that didn’t have those things, i can really appreciate how difficult it is to build a company with this type of environment.”<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"rachel-210x250\"<\/a><\/p>\n

snacks\u2026<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cis it wrong of me to say that the unlimited tea and dark chocolate makes me really happy…?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

— rachel wisuri,\u00a0community manager<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

there you have it! we\u2019re just a group of happy people working together in an office and now the world knows. thank you for the award, tinypulse! we are so honored and stoked to receive it!<\/p>\n
